The California Public Utilities Commission released its staff
proposal for revisions to the Rule 20 utility undergrounding
tariff program on February 13, 2020. The Administrative Law Judge
(ALJ) recently granted an extension to all parties to file and
serve opening comments by April 21, 2020. CSAC
encourages counties to comment directly to the CPUC, and/or
provide feedback to inform CSAC’s comments. Please submit any
feedback to Marina Espinoza at mespinoza@counties.org by COB
April 15, 2020.
This ruling also grants party status to any person who files and
serves opening comments by April 21, 2020. The opening paragraph
of such comments must state that the ALJ’s email ruling granted
party status to such person. Such opening comments must be filed
and served in compliance with the Commission’s Rules of Practice
and Procedure.
New parties to this proceeding should contact Jessie Levine at
jel@cpuc.ca.gov or
213-266-4725 for guidance on how to file and serve comments in
Commission proceedings. New parties should also promptly request
addition to the “Information Only” category of the service list
for R.17-05-010 by sending an email to processoffice@cpuc.ca.gov.
Stakeholders who do not have time to file and serve formal
comments in this proceeding may submit brief informal public
comments at
this link.
